My Project

My classroom is built differently from other classrooms. I teach a multiple disability support classroom, which means my students have an array of disabilities that prevent them from learning the "traditional" ways.

In my classroom, I used lots of color activities for my students who have visual impairments.

The color printer with ink will help me reach those students with bright bold coloring on activities. I also have many students with physical handicaps who can't use a traditional toy, so I would use the sensory toys to connect to switch devices, which allows my students various means to create the cause and effect of the toy activation. Please help my students reach their personal goals
